While some might have the misconception that these small canines are a shrunk-down version of the Doberman Pinscher, the Miniature Pinscher breed actually has a longer history than that of the Doberman. Often referred to as “the King of the Toys” by those in the know, these diminutive but dynamic dogs were originally employed on German farms as pest control. While they are small in size, Miniature Pinschers are not lapdogs but athletic, driven canines who respond best to a firm but loving approach.
Miniature Pinschers are delightfully entertaining companions, but the novice owner may need some extra guidance when raising this bold breed. They require regular training sessions and daily exercise or they can quickly become unruly, demanding, and manipulative. Learn everything that you need to know to raise your dog from a lively Pinscher pup to a curious and confident adult with a dignified air.
These little dogs make animated and entertaining companions that will keep you on the move. Miniature Pinscher parents will find themselves reaching for this handy manual over and over again. The valuable information contained in this guide is designed to help you navigate pet ownership, from selecting the right canine companion for your home to caring for your dog throughout his senior years.
This thorough volume is a must-have manual for anyone who adores the Miniature Pinscher breed.
